Belichick, who spoke with the media shortly on Monday, has skipped the breakfast occasionally in the past. Belichick will not be fined: The league asks coaches to show up for the interviews, but does not require them to be there.

He just loves to thumb his nose at the establishment any chance he gets. It’s sort of a shame because he’s got some of the best insight into game of football as anyone else around. It’s nice when he decides to share some of that info.

And on the other side of the coin you have Rex Ryan, who has’nt turned down a free meal (or any meal) or a microphone in his entire life.
____________________________________The funny thing is those two guys are at HEART…very similar guys. I’m not always a fan of everything RR says..I think he talks too much at times but I respect the guy as a coaching mind.
BB has his hoodies and his painful one line pressers…RR has his large appetite and his big mouth…but they respect each other a great deal and as a Pats fan I GET that…they both see past the “outside” of the other one and respect what they are as coaches which is the important thing.
